Abstract: Synthetic nucleic acid molecules are non-covalently immobilized in the presence of a salt or cationic detergent on a hydrophilic polystyrene solid support containing an -OH, -C=O or -COOH hydrophilic group or on a glass solid support. The support is contacted with a solution having a pH of about 6 to about 8 containing the synthetic nucleic acid and the cationic detergent or salt. Preferably, the cationic detergent is 1-ethyl-3-(3'-dimethylaminopropyl)-1,3-carbodiimide hyrochloride at a concentration of about 30 mM to about 100 mM or octyldimethylamine hydrochloride at a concentration of about 50 mM to about 150 mM. The salt is preferably NaCl at a concentration of about 50 mM to about 250 mM. When the detergent is 1-ethyl-3-(3'-dimethylaminopropyl)-1,3-carbodiimide hyrochloride, the glass support or the hydrophilic polystyrene support is used. When NaCl or octyldimethylamine hydrochloride is used, the support is the hydrophilic polystyrene. After immobilization, the support containing the immobilized nucleic acid may be washed with an aqueous solution containing a non-ionic detergent. The immobilized nucleic acid may be used in nucleic acid hybridization assays, nucleic acid sequencing and in analysis of genomic polymorphisms.

Abstract: A controller for changing the ratio of a continuously variable hydrostatic transmission, as determined by the angular position of a swashplate, including an actuator having a cylinder slidingly receiving a piston to define a pair of chambers. A pair of solenoid valves, each configured to connect a respective chamber selectively to sump pump pressure or atmospheric pressure, are energized with a stream of pulses to create differential fluid pressures in the chambers, thereby producing movement of the piston; the piston movement being linked to the swashplate to produce a corresponding adjustment of the swashplate angular position. The rate of change of the swashplate angular position is controlled by pulse width modulating the pulse stream.

Abstract: A color-filter manufacturing method which manufactures a color filter where occurrence of color mixture and colorless portion(s) are prevented while improving ink-arrival precision in applying ink onto a substrate. The method manufactures a color filter by discharging ink from an ink-jet head IJH on a substrate 53 so as to color respective pixels with a plurality of discharge ink. When ink I2 discharged from the ink-jet head IJH is applied not in the form of ink droplet but in the form of pillar onto the substrate 53, the ink I2 is applied at a position within a pixel, where the ink I2 is to mix with previously-applied ink I1. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention pertains to a method for crediting or recrediting a SIM card (subscriber identity module) for a mobile radio telephone (6) with a given amount (28). The SIM card comprises a chip provided with a memory element (11). The amount is stored in said memory element (11) and decreases as the mobile radio telephone is used. In order to credit or recredit a SIM card, the user must possess a memory board (13) payable in advance. The memory board (12) has a code area (14) covered with a nontransparent detachable film (22). A code (15) appears upon detaching the film (22). The SIM card (7) and memory board (13) holder dials a service number from a telephone (6, 8), the calling party thereby being connected to a data bank (17) where all codes allocated to memory boards (15) and the corresponding amounts (12) are recorded. The calling party is requested to input his code number into the telephone (6, 8) with which he is calling. Once entered, the code is compared with the code recorded at the data bank. As soon as the code (15) has been retrieved, a short message with the amount to be credited or recredited is temporarily recorded at the short message service center (18, 19). The amount (28) and the code (15) registered at the data bank (17) are then marked as depleted or erased. Next time the holder inserts his SIM card (7) into any mobile radio telephone and sets up a connection with the telecommunication network (9), said card will be credited or recredited with the amount (28) temporarily recorded on the basis of the prepared short message (20).

Abstract: This Protection System, for PC Software stored in CD-ROM, prevents the illegal copying (hacking) with negligible cost increase of the protected Application. The same CD-ROM that contains the Application Software serves as a "protection key". The CD-ROM disk undergoes a special treatment during its production phase that results in the generation of the Inspection Ring. This system uses a special method for the verification of the authenticity of the Inspection Ring. The existence of the Inspection Ring along with the use of the authenticity verification procedure make impossible the copying of the CD-ROM disk even with the most advanced recording equipment. This system has many advantages over other protection methods like: excellent protection, transparency to the end-user and very low cost since the "protection-key" is the same CD-ROM disk that contains the Application. This system can be used for the protection of every Application Software for PC compatibles that is stored in a CD-ROM and runs under DOS or Windows environments.

Abstract: The present invention is a method of diagnosing the presence of a persistent occlusion in a myocardial infarct patient undergoing thrombolytic therapy. The method comprises detecting a series of five variables from the patient and then generating the probability of the presence of a persistent occlusion from those variables. The first variable comprises a serum creatine kinase MB (CK-MB) level from a patient at the onset of thrombolytic therapy. The second variable comprises a second CK-MB level in the patient at a predetermined time after the onset of thrombolytic therapy. The third variable comprises the presence or absence of chest pain a predetermined time after the onset of thrombolytic therapy. The fourth variable comprises the serum myoglobin level in the patient at a predetermined time after the onset of thrombolytic therapy. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the second, third and fourth variables are detected within 30 minutes of each other and within about 1 to about 3 hours after the initial variable is detected. In an alternate embodiment a fifth variable reflecting the time from onset of chest pain to the beginning of thrombolytic therapy is included in the regression model.

On dispose ainsi d'un distributeur qui, d'une part, peut être adapté aux réservoirs et systèmes de remplissage classiques existants et, d'autre part, protège le fluide dans le réservoir de toute contamination, efficacement et économiquement, ce qui rend inutile l'emploi de conservateurs. Le distributeur peut se présenter sous la forme d'une pompe (2) ou peut être réalisé de façon que le réservoir soit une bouteille pressable (31).

Date Jun. 26, 1997A plunger tool for producing a special prophylactic is disclosed. The special features of the plunger tool reside in the special curvatures in its shaped section. The shaped section of the plunger tool exhibits an extreme narrowing, at the deepest point of which there may be at least one annular groove. Unlike prior art transitions, the transition from the large diameter to the reservoir section is not steep and straight but takes the form of an S-shaped curve. An exact contour of the annular grooves on the surface of the plunger tool is essential for their production and can be done only by the use of a precision diamond abrasive point.

Abstract: A heartrate monitor of the invention includes a signal receiver adapted for being coupled to at least one sensor coupled to a medical patient, for providing an ECG signal and a pacemaker detection signal. A pacemaker activity checker, responsive to the pacemaker detection signal and the ECG signal provides first and second output signals, the first output signal indicating the occurrence of a QRS complex in the vicinity of the pacemaker detection signal, and the second output signal indicating the occurrence of an overshoot in the vicinity of the pacemaker detection signal. An overshoot validator, responsive to the ECG signals and the second output signal indicates the validity of the indicated overshoot. A QRS detector, responsive to the ECG signal, indicates the occurrence of a QRS complex in the ECG signal. A logic combining means, responsive to at least the first output signal, the output of the overshoot validator and the output of the QRS detector, determines a combined QRS detection signal, that accurately indicates the occurance of QRS's. A heartrate determining means responsive to the combined QRS detection signal provides an accurate indication of the heartrate for the medical patient. <IMAGE>
